[rancid] Rancid CVS Issue

[Andy Townsend]

I've made very few changes apart from those mentioned in the initial
install guide. Was asked for the following from someone else but it could
be handy to someone else as well.

I've not changed the CVS directory but its set to the following as well.

++ CVSROOT=/usr/local/rancid/var/CVS
++ export CVSROOT

[rancid at router ~]$ sh -x `which rancid-cvs`
+ ENVFILE=/usr/local/rancid/etc/rancid.conf
+ '[' 0 -ge 1 ']'
+ . /usr/local/rancid/etc/rancid.conf
++ TERM=network
++ export TERM
++ LC_COLLATE=POSIX
++ export LC_COLLATE
++ umask 027
++ TMPDIR=/tmp
++ export TMPDIR
++ BASEDIR=/usr/local/rancid/var
++ export BASEDIR
++ PATH=/usr/local/rancid/bin:/usr/bin:.:/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin
++ export PATH
++ CVSROOT=/usr/local/rancid/var/CVS
++ export CVSROOT
++ LOGDIR=/usr/local/rancid/var/logs
++ export LOGDIR
++ RCSSYS=cvs
++ export RCSSYS
++ FILTER_PWDS=NO
++ export FILTER_PWDS
++ NOCOMMSTR=NO
++ export NOCOMMSTR
++ LIST_OF_GROUPS=networking
++ MAILDOMAIN=@testdomain.com
++ export MAILDOMAIN
+ '[' '!' -d /usr/local/rancid/var ']'
+ cd /usr/local/rancid/var
+ RCSSYS=cvs
+ '[' cvs '!=' cvs -a cvs '!=' svn ']'
+ '[' cvs = cvs ']'
+ '[' '!' -d /usr/local/rancid/var/CVS ']'
+ '[' '!' -d logs ']'
+ '[' 0 -ge 1 ']'
+ '[' networking = '' ']'
++ echo networking
+ for GROUP in '`echo $LIST_OF_GROUPS`'
+ DIR=/usr/local/rancid/var/networking
+ '[' '!' -d /usr/local/rancid/var/networking ']'
+ cd /usr/local/rancid/var/networking
+ '[' '!' -d configs ']'
+ '[' '!' -f routers.all ']'
+ '[' '!' -f routers.down ']'
+ '[' '!' -f routers.up ']'
+ '[' '!' -f router.db ']'
